The math

On a $400,000 home, here’s what each of us takes.

A listing agent

$12,900

+ closing costs

3% ($12,000) plus a $900 admin fee.

One flat fee, paid when your listing goes live.

more at closing on a $400,000 home. That’s a kitchen. Or a year of daycare.

$400,000
What about closing costs and buyer’s agents?

Closing costs are paid either way: title fees, the title company’s attorney fee for preparing the deed, recording fees, your mortgage payoff and prorated property taxes. They don’t depend on who sells your home, and we don’t mark any of them up.

Buyer’s agent pay, if you choose to offer any, is separate under both options and entirely your call. We’ll show you what’s typical on your street.

How it works

Three steps from “thinking about it” to “closed.”

  1. 01

    Tell us about your home

    Your address, a few quick questions, and photos from your camera roll.

    5 minutes, from your phone

  2. 02

    We put it everywhere

    AI drafts your listing and preps your photos. At launch, a licensed Texas brokerage partner will review it before it goes on the MLS, Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com and Homes.com.

    Live in 48 hours

  3. 03

    Offers, signatures, keys

    Showings book through the app. Offers land with a plain-English summary. You sign in DocuSign and we run the closing.

    You keep the commission

Why it’s $499

How can it cost $499 instead of $12,900?

A commission is priced as a share of your home’s value, not the work it takes to sell it. We charge for the work, and software does most of it.

A pricier home isn’t much more work to sell. A percentage commission still grows with the price.

Agent fee shown as a 3% commission plus a $900 admin fee. Closing costs are the same either way.

    Commissions often also cover brokerage splits, franchise fees, offices and paid leads.

    We’re online-only, so none of that ends up in your fee.

    No driving around

    Showings and open houses add hours of drive time to every sale.

    Verified buyers book showings with a smart lockbox code.

So what’s the catch?

  • You’re a bit more hands-on. You approve your listing and make the call on every offer, with plain-English help.
  • Buyer’s agent pay is still your choice, and it costs the same with us or an agent.
  • Closing costs don’t change. Title fees, deed prep, recording and your mortgage payoff are paid at closing either way.
  • Cleaning, repairs and pro photos are optional extras, priced separately.

What you get

$499

buys the whole listing.

Not a “basic package.” The same listing, exposure and paperwork a full-commission agent would give you. At launch, listing and negotiation services will come from a licensed Texas brokerage partner.

  • MLS listing until it sells, up to six months, extended free
  • Syndication to Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com, Homes.com and 100+ sites
  • AI-written listing, photo enhancement and price guidance
  • Yard sign and smart lockbox, shipped to your door
  • Showing scheduling and buyer verification
  • Plain-English offer summaries and negotiation support
  • Every document prepared and signed in DocuSign
  • Closing coordination with your title company
  • Chat and phone support, seven days a week

Not in the $499: closing costs like title fees, deed preparation, recording fees and your mortgage payoff, paid at closing under any option; buyer’s agent pay if you choose to offer it; vendor work or pro photos if you book them.

Questions

The “but what about...” section.

Who will list my home?
A licensed Texas real estate brokerage partner, once we launch. Gable isn’t a brokerage itself, and the MLS requires a licensed broker to place every listing. We’ll post the brokerage’s name and license details here before we open.
Do I still have to pay a buyer’s agent?
That’s your call. Since 2024, sellers aren’t required to offer buyer-agent compensation. Many still offer something to attract agent-represented buyers; we’ll show you what’s typical on your street and you decide. Whatever you choose costs the same with a listing agent or with us.
What closing costs will I still pay?
The same ones you’d pay with a listing agent: title fees for your owner’s policy and escrow, the title company’s attorney fee for preparing the deed, recording fees and a tax certificate. Your mortgage payoff, including any payoff or lien-release fees, plus prorated property taxes and HOA dues, also come out at closing. Texas doesn’t require you to hire your own attorney, though you’re free to. We don’t mark any of these up.
Who handles showings and negotiations?
At launch, showings will book through Gable and every visitor will be verified before a lockbox code goes out. Offers will arrive with a plain-English summary, and our licensed brokerage partner will walk you through counteroffers by chat or phone. You make the decisions.
What if it doesn’t sell?
Your listing stays live for six months and we extend it for free. You never owe more than $499, and the AI keeps nudging on price and photos until it moves.
When do I pay?
$499 when your listing goes live. Vendor work and pro photos, if you use them, are quoted up front and paid separately.
Where do you work?
Texas only for now: the Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, Austin and San Antonio metros. Outside those? Start anyway and we’ll tell you the moment we reach your county.
